Mr. Fang was shocked when he knew that Wen Wan valued Qi Zhe: "Princess, that child looks rebellious and difficult to teach. How could the princess choose him?" Mr. Fang really couldn't understand Wen Wan's thinking. He left the good boy alone and chose the worst one instead. Can't answer several questions. How could the princess pick him?
Wen Wan smiled softly: "Sir, of course I have my reasons. I have to trouble you, sir." Wen Wan was informing, not requesting.
Over the past few months, Mr. Fang has grown to admire Wen Wan more and more. Because of his admiration, I believe Wen Wan will not choose Qi Zhe for no reason: "I'll tell you a little more, why did the princess choose this child?" Mr. Fang is still thinking about several seemingly simple questions Wen Wan asked. In fact, when I think about it, I find it very meaningful.
Wen Wan smiled softly: "I believe that your husband can tell whether the child is qualified or not. But there is a hostility in this child. This is really not good. You should pay more attention to it in the future."
Mr. Fang glanced at Wen Wan and said, "Since the princess has decided, I will naturally obey." Mr. Fang didn't know whether Qi Zhe's qualifications were good or not. But since Wen Wan said that, she must be hugging me. If you can carve a piece of rotten wood into beautiful jade, it will be a great sense of accomplishment.
Wen Wan did not explain to others the reason why she chose Qi Zhe. First, Qi Zhe has very good qualifications, which was determined by data analysts and the person himself. Second, Qi Zhe's living environment is very difficult. In such a big family, there are many complicated relationships outside, there is a stepmother who is the only one doting on the family, and there are a bunch of talented cousins ??around (Prince Hao said that there are no good children in the mansion, only the relatively calm Ming Rui and the lively Ming Ming) It¡¯s not that there are no smart children in Prince Hao¡¯s palace. Of course, only I know how talented he is.) Qi Zhe¡¯s status as the legitimate son of his original wife is actually very delicate. Wen Wan believes that the environment in which Mingrui and Mingjin live is too simple, and they need someone who grew up in a complex environment to accompany them. This lets them know that this time is actually very dark, even at home (Ling Chang is a quiet gourd and never talks about the darkness of the East Palace).
The reason why Mr. Fang doesn¡¯t like Qi Zhe is that he feels that Qi Zhe has a violent temper. And according to rumors. Qi Zhe's reputation is also very poor. A nine-year-old child knows how to eat, drink and have fun, and has a violent temper. He is uneducated and has no skills, anyway. The reputation is terrible. Literary people all have a bad habit. That is, if you don¡¯t like it, you won¡¯t pay attention to it.
"If Wen Wan hadn't passed the school entrance examination herself and had someone check it carefully, she would have thought that this child was hopeless. But when Wen Wan saw this child looking at her, his eyes revealed perseverance. It was this look that made Wen Wan lean toward him. After analyzing the found information with Xia Yao and Xia Ying, I asked them for their opinions (Wen Wan was also afraid, as Xia Yao said, if she misjudged her eyes. If another white-eyed wolf was raised, it would be a big trouble) .
After careful discussion, Xia Yao and Xia Ying agreed that this child is good. After Wen Wan received affirmative answers from both of them, she informed Prince Hao that Mr. Fang chose Qi Zhe.
¡°I have to say that Prince Hao was surprised. I originally thought that Wen Wan would choose the two children in the third and fourth bedrooms, but I really didn't expect to choose Qi Zhe in the second bedroom. Qi Zhe, he doesn't have much impression of this child anymore. As the head of the family, Prince Hao has too many things to deal with, including external affairs. The descendants below will at most focus on the eldest grandson. After all, this is the person who will inherit the family business in the future. As for the affairs of the inner court, Prince Hao did not care about it.
Prince Hao has only four legitimate sons, but Prince Hao has many sons. There are eleven (survivors), the youngest is seven years old. If Wen Wan hadn't specified that he must have a legitimate son, Prince Hao would have still hoped to send his youngest son over. But as for the legitimate son, the youngest of the four sons got married ten years ago. So the gentle request was actually from his grandchildren in disguise. But I really didn¡¯t expect that Wen Wan¡¯s cards would never be played normally.
Prince Hao asked Qi Zhe to be brought to the study. Prince Hao had no impression of Qi Zhe at all. He doesn't look like himself, and he's not outstanding in talent or knowledge, so it's normal that he didn't notice. Prince Hao felt immediately. There must be something about this kid that I haven't discovered yet.
Prince Hao and Qi Zhe talked for a long time. Qi Zhe saw that his face was dull and his answers to questions were also average. But there was depth in Prince Hao's eyes. There were still doubts before, but now Prince Hao probably has an idea. He didn't know whether Qi Zhe was talented or not, but his courage was definitely not low. Some of the children in the palace were trembling with fear when they saw him. But the child in front of him did not, and his expression was very calm.
You can¡¯t blame Qi Zhe for pretending in front of Prince Hao. There was really bone-crushing pain. Three years ago, before his brother died, he told him that before he was able to protect himself, he should hide himself like Princess Wenwan and not let others know his true identity. It's okay to resist that woman when necessary, as long as you can survive, don't worry about filial piety or lack of filial piety.Shun's reputation. My brother said that once your reputation is ruined, you can recover it, but if you lose your life, you have nothing. Otherwise, his brother's fate will be his fate (his brother is a gentle child). Because of this, Qi Zhe behaves like a child who is extremely naughty, uneducated, and has no future. Because of this, he survived safely these three years.
But this opportunity is too rare. If you don¡¯t reveal your true nature, this opportunity will fall by the wayside. Qi Zhe made up his mind to let his cousin choose him. Because of this, he exposed his true self in front of Wen Wan.
Qi Zhe was also very excited and clenched his fists as he walked on the road. He will definitely learn true skills from his cousin Wen Wan, and in the future, he will be able to avenge his brother.
Qi Zhe went to Prince Hao¡¯s study. Within a quarter of an hour, everyone in the palace knew the news. During this period, because a child was to be sent to study at the Princess' Mansion, everyone except the eldest son, the third child, was looking forward to it enthusiastically. For no other reason than to establish a relationship with Princess Wenwan and do business with her, the money would just flow into her pocket. Unfortunately, Wen Wan's request seemed simple, but it eliminated a large number of people. This includes Qi Zhe's half-brother, who is of the right age and is also his legitimate son, but his health is not good enough.
Concubine Tong was stunned when she heard the news: "The gentle vision is different." As the current housekeeper in the palace, Concubine Tong knew very well about Qi Zhe's naughty nature. It is impossible to choose anyone but Qi Zhe. Unfortunately, common sense cannot be used to infer Wen Wan's choice.
The prince smiled and said, "Do you think Wen Wan was chosen because Qi Zhe had similar experiences to her?"
Concubine Tong Shizi glanced at the prince immediately: "How can this be the same? You don't want to think about what Wenwan was like before and what she is like now? If the father hears it, he will scold you again."
In fact, the prince is not as puzzled as Prince Hao said. His temperament is a bit soft, but he is not as soft-hearted as Ping Xiangxi. He and his wife were very affectionate and affectionate. Set a good example for the brothers below. The relationship between the four brothers is still very good. Prince Hao's residence is peaceful and harmonious to the outside world. As for the backyard, as long as it's okay on the whole, no one will care. Just like Qi Zhe's brother Qi Sheng. He died of illness, not an accident or poisoning, he definitely died of illness. Except for Qi Zhe, everyone believed that Qi Sheng died of natural causes.
Sanfang and Sifang were furious for three days after hearing the news. If they had known the result earlier, they should not have allowed this kid to participate in the first place. Unexpectedly, he came out on top. If it were anyone else, they would still say a few words of ignorance. But facing Wenwan, they were speechless.
Of course, the most depressing one is the second lady. Even if she scratched her head, she still couldn't figure out why Princess Wen Wan chose Qi Zhe. Such a naughty person is far worse than her son (unfortunately, her son's hardware is not up to par, and he is not old enough to even see a gentle face).
Qi Zhe dined with his biological father, stepmother and younger brother that day. Qi Zhe looked at a table of sumptuous meals. His eyebrows were raised, and his father, who had always been cold and stern towards him, became kind to him. Unfortunately, Qi Zhe didn't buy it. His expression was still that careless look. His father was furious. What's rare is that the stepmother is still speaking words of comfort. This time she is really persuading and not adding fuel to the fire. Qi Zhe didn't hide his sarcasm at all.
When Qi Zhe ate, he always watched his father and brother eat the dishes they picked up before using chopsticks. Qi Zhe has done this before. But it's done more obscurely. For example, when he watched his father and younger brother use chopsticks, he supported the dishes in one bowl. This time it was different.
The second lady was horrified when she saw it. She never imagined that the person in front of her had been pretending. Otherwise, how could there be such scheming.
Qi Zhe looked at the dishes brought over by the second lady. He moved the bowl in his hand back, and the dishes fell on the table. Then the second master roared.
Qi Zhe stood up and accepted the second master¡¯s roar. The second master was furious when he saw Qi Zhe's appearance. The bowls and chopsticks in his hand were thrown onto Qi Zhe. Qi Zhe's whole body was covered with food.
Qi Zhe didn¡¯t say much. Anyway, he was never a filial son and grandson. He knelt on the ground and let his father continue to scold him. After cursing, the second lady persuaded Qi Zhe to change his clothes.
Qi Zhe left the house and did not return to the main courtyard. He went directly to the courtyard where Prince Hao lived. There were many people in the palace. Just along the way, dozens of people saw the embarrassed Qi Zhe.
Prince Hao is at home and happens to be in the yard. When he heard Qi Zhe coming, he let him in. Prince Hao looked at Qi Zhe in such a mess that his forehead was still green. His face suddenly darkened: "What's going on? Huh?"
Qi Zhe knelt on the ground and said, "Grandpa, I want to visit my cousin tomorrow." In the palace. He didn't want to stay any longer. And Qi Zhe knew very well that his cousin usually went to Zhuangzi after the Chinese New Year. I went there for two or three months. So, ??Must be familiar with the environment before this.
Prince Hao asked what was going on. Qi Zhe said that he offended his father and hit his forehead on his own. It has nothing to do with anyone else.
After Prince Hao knew the whole story, he looked at Qi Zhe without saying a word for a long time. After a long time, he asked: "Qi Zhe, can you tell my grandfather what the reason is?"
Qi Zhe glanced at Prince Hao and lowered his head. After a long time, he said: "That woman wants to harm me. She has always wanted to harm me. She also killed my brother."
Prince Hao clenched his fist: "Who told you?"
Qi Zhe did not raise his head, but lowered his head and said, "No one knows it but me. This woman poisoned my brother and killed him, and now she wants to kill me."
Prince Hao asked the people below, and the answer he received was that Qi Zhe's brother Qi Sheng had died of illness. It's not poisoned. Prince Hao thought for a long time and wrote a letter to Wen Wan.
¡°The gentle beginning means that it will be the end of the year in another half month, and the children will be sent to the princess¡¯ mansion after the New Year. Prince Hao did not object.
Wen Wan is a little surprised that Prince Hao is so eager. Xia Ying said with a smile: "I'm afraid it's not Prince Hao who is anxious, but the young master Qi Zhe who is anxious. Princess, you may not know that young master Qi Zhe is very cautious about the second lady."
Wen Wan sighed: "Could it be that he committed the crime against the wind and wanted to kill Qi Zhe?" That was too courageous. Too stupid.
Xia Ying shook his head: "It's not that stupid. I just heard that Qi Zhe's biological brother, Qi Sheng, was killed by this woman. Although Qi Zhe had no evidence to prove it, he threatened that if he also died, it must be This woman killed him. And he often said that this woman wanted to harm him. He gave many examples. Otherwise, he might not be alive now, but it would be difficult for him to have such a thoughtful stepmother. It's also his bad luck. It's not easy for such a young child to survive to this day. I was wondering why the princess chose him, but now it seems that he is also a genius. The little witch saw the big witch. Fortunately, the princess did not meet such a woman, otherwise the princess would have died long ago with a bowl of medicine.
Wen Wan shook her head and muttered that Prince Hao was so powerful. The backyard was a mess. Wenwan is just complaining. As the head of the family, Prince Hao is not that easy to do. Moreover, there are many people in the backyard with diverse thoughts, so it is not that easy to deal with. Not to mention that this is my son¡¯s backyard.
Wen Wan thought for a while and then said: "In this way, after clearing out Luoju Garden, Qi Zhe will live in Luoju Garden. Well, Ling Chang will also live there." The two children are also older, eight and nine years old. . It¡¯s time to have my own yard. Luoju Garden is very large, and it is enough for two people.
Xia Yao disagreed: "Princess Princess, I think they should have a separate courtyard. As for Mingrui and Mingjin, they can have a courtyard." Xia Yao also had his own considerations. If two children live together, their relationship will gradually become better than others.
Wen Wan didn't think much about it. When she heard Xia Yao's refusal, she thought that she might not be used to living alone in a courtyard at home and living together here: "Sure, as you said. In addition, clean up the yard next door. Let Mingrui and Ming Jin will also move in. "Wen Wan plans to let Mingrui and Mingjin move in next year. Wen Wan originally planned to move the child to the wing next year. But now that Ling Chang and Qi Zhe are competing, it is inappropriate to leave the child in the yard.
Mingjin was naturally very happy when she heard Wen Wan's words. He will be seven years old after the Chinese New Year. A seven-year-old child should no longer live with his mother.
Mingrui had expected this a long time ago. Nothing. However, seeing Mingjin's cheering expression, she couldn't help but hit Mingjin: "I can tell you, it's our cousin who is here. Don't be the last one and lose the face of your father and mother." Three As a child, Mingjin always came last in the assessment in the past. If Wen Wan hadn't been comforting her, telling her not to be arrogant in victory and not discouraged in defeat, Mingjin would have lost confidence.
Mingjin was unhappy after hearing this: "Mother, can you please stop letting people in? He is the same generation as mother, and when we see him, he will be shorter." Cousin, he is their elder. You must not listen to him again. Mingjin was not happy about this.
Wen Wan smiled and explained that she couldn¡¯t refuse. Mingjin was comforted, but Wenwan was not worried about Qi Zhe getting along with the three people. If you are a good boy, you still have to worry. Qi Zhe's own reputation to the outside world is that he is naughty. You can't live without two brushes.
This is the second time Qi Zhe meets Wen Wan. In Qi Zhe's heart, Wen Wan is his idol, his goal, and his ultimate goal. Now that he can finally study in the princess's mansion and leave the wolf's den, how can Qi Zhe not be overjoyed.
Wen Wan looked at Qi Zhe, who was wearing a green robe embroidered with green patterns and a purple cloak. I didn't notice it at first, but WenwanLooking at Qi Zhe who had taken off his cloak, he frowned. This kid is too thin. It's not the withered and skinny Wenwan was before, but lean and lean: "Has your body always been like this?" There is a kind of person who never gets fat no matter how much he eats. If he has a body type like this, there's nothing much to say about it. But if it's for hungry people, Wen Wan thinks that Prince Hao's face will look very wonderful then. So I exclude it for hungry people.
Qi Zhe whispered: "I don't know either."
Wen Wan first asked Dr. Ye to diagnose him. But be sure not to get residual poison in your body and then have an attack in a month, two months or a few years.
Doctor Ye¡¯s pulse check was normal, but because of the gentle and deliberate reminder, he not only took the pulse, but also took the blood back. Whether it is poisonous or not, blood is the best proof.
Wen Wan looked at Qi Zhe who was cooperating and nodded. This child is good and has a stable mind: "I know your situation. If there is any abnormality in your body, it is best to treat it in time. If you accidentally suffer from sequelae, there will be no remedy at that time."
Qi Zhe was deeply moved. There is no shortage of food and clothing in the palace, but you have to beware of that vicious woman. I have spent the past three years thinking hard, but I never thought: "Cousin, don't worry, I'm fine. I have a good relationship with Brother Qi. I often eat at his place and rarely eat in the yard. Even when I eat, I always get free of charge. Steamed buns, white eggs, etc. (If these things have been tampered with, you can tell at a glance). Even if I¡¯m dining with them, I won¡¯t eat anything they don¡¯t use their chopsticks.¡±
Wen Wan's heart trembled because this child was so wary. What Wen Wan doesn't know is that Qi Zhe learned from his brother's mistakes. Although there is a big age difference, Wen Wan and Qi Zhe are of the same seniority, and Wen Wan does not make any intimate gestures. He just said kindly: "From now on, you will treat the mansion as your own home. However, you will be the eldest after you come here. You must take good care of the three of them." No matter in terms of age or seniority, Qi Zhe is the eldest.
When Doctor Ye came back, his face was relaxed: "Princess, Master Qizhe is not in bad health. He just needs to take care of himself and he will be fine."
Nodding gently, no problem is the best. If there is a problem, Wen Wan should have a headache. But thinking about Qi Zhe's thin body: "Xia Xian, in addition to three meals, you can replenish Qi Zhe's body alone. He is too thin." Looking at this lean and lean body, Wen Wan is not worried. .
Qi Zhe still wants to hear gentle teachings. It's a pity that the reality is cruel when you think about it. When he went to the princess's mansion, except Wen Wan who saw him when he came to the mansion, he could not see Wen Wan at other times. Fortunately, he couldn't see Wen Wan, but Mr. Fang and the two masters also made him very satisfied.
